Malsak’s beer oon and pool room, corner of Massachusetts avenue and Fifth street northwest. Emmanuel Madison, a young colored man who was merely looking on, received aprobably fatal shot in the abdomen. ‘It appears that a party of colored men were in the saloon playing pool and cards, | and a dispute arose over a game between Wil- liam Crawford and “Pete” Ames. The game ended in a fight between the two men who were playing “flve-up.” Crawford was worsted in the fight and beaten in the game. He ac- knowledged his defeat ai paid for his loss. ‘Ames did not appear satisfied, and his friend, Wash. Meredith, urged on a second fight, but Crawiord acknowledged that Ames could we him. Crawford did not like the part Meredit! was taking in the trouble, and after some words passe? between therm Crawford drew a pistol and fired at Meredith. As Crawford was consid- erably under the influence of liquor, his aim was not correct, and instead of striking Mere- dith the ball entered Madison's abdomen, and inflicted a probably fatal wound. The officers of the seventh precinct were at once notified, and Officers Oliver and Fisher, with the patrol wagon, Were soon upon the scene. While the Injured man was being cared for the officers started in pursuit of Crawford, and captured him near the corner ot M and Fifth streets. He was taken to theseventh precinet station and locked up. The injured man was conveyed to Freedman’s cospital. His wound is considered to be of a dangerous character. The revolver was picked up on the street and turned over to Lieutenant Kelly. CRAWFORD'S ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR. The prisoner, when seen in his cell last night by a STAaxr reporter, said that he shot at and in- tended to kill Wash. Meredith, and would not have eared had he accomplished his purpose, bat was very sorry he shot Madison, who was his friend. fe said he hid been in the saloon since 11 o'clock in the morning drinking and playing cards and pool; he had been playing ith Ames for beer. He said he lost e and paid for the beer. Over another they had a dispute, and Ames whipped He said he mitted that Ames could him and declined to fight, but Wash. Meredith urged Ames to fight. After quarreling Srawford said Meredith threat- smash his brains out, and enone eredith’s character he drew his pistol an fired. CRAWFORD COMMITTED TO JAIT. ‘This morning in the Police Court Crawford was charged with assault and battery with in- tent to kill, Mr. Thomas stated that he had been informed that the man had been shot in the abdomen and was dangerously wounded, | and on that account he would ask that the case be continued without bail, which was done, and Crawtord was committed ‘to. ee AMUSEMENTS. “OUR JOAN” AT THE NATIONAL THEATER.— Here is a play which combines the emotional and the sensational with considerable skill, forming a strong and interesting drama of wholesome tone. “Our Joan” “contains little of essential novelty “in its story, but the treatment on the whole is fresh and vigorous, and the dialogue bright and thor- oughly free from staginess. The spectacular light house and storm scenes are introduced with sueh tact that the dramatic action suffers nothing,but Is rather heightened and Intensified by the wimirably contrived setting. Of course in the Lands of players less capable than those Who sast night took the leading roles, the scenes of “Our Joan” might easily become com- monplace and robustious. Miss Coghlan gives a strong and intelligent impersonation of the title role, in which last night she created a great deai of enthusiasm among the audience. She was repeatedly recalled. Mr. Frazer Coulter is an entirely acceptable Meredith. Miss Florence Robinson as Lady Ruth and Miss Emma Hagger as Alice were very good. | Mr. MeManus’ Martin 1s also worthy of mention. Mr. Graham’s Cupt. Brandon is _inettective. “Our Joan” will run all the week at the Na- tional: ALBAUGH’S OPERA Hovse.—Mr. N.C. Good- wiu's appearance as the hero of the burlesque “Skating Rink” atthis house last night was provocative of a great deal of hilarity, a re- sult which, as a rule, follows Mr. Goodwin's ap- pearance in any guise on the stage. ain belongs to that large class of dramatic struc- tures whose only plot consists of a good natured conspiracy on the part of the players o make the audience laugh by such means as first come to hand, whether they are artistic or otherwise. There is sure to be a certain artistic flavor to anything Mr. Goodwin does, and his exploits last night formed no exception. He sang, danced, “gagged” and imitated, or rather burlésqued, well Known actors with the usual happy effect, and his efforts were seconded with promptitude and spirit. by his company. “The Skating Rink” remains open all the week at Albaugh's. Hanus’ Busou THEATER.—A large audience filled this house last night to witness the first evening performance under the new manage- ment. ‘The play was “The Shaughraun,” and the amusing and thrilling scenes were enacted with good results by the company, headed by Mr. Charles Verner, whose Conn is a’ meritorious piece of work. Mr. J. M. Randell as Robert Fiollett, Winston Murray as Kinchella, Mr. Webber as the Capiain, Miss Henderson as Claire, and Miss AcKerman us Arte O'Neill are also worthy of mention for their good work. The audieace was very enthusiastic, and U new theatrical venture started off in a most auspicious manner. Henz06’s OPERA HoUsE.—Miss Louise Pome- roy and ler company returned to this house yesterday and were welcomed back by larg audiences.
